The Shooting Sports curriculum uses the resources of the
land-grant university and the time, talent, and dedication of
Cooperative Extension agents and certified 4-H leaders, instructors, and
trainers who instruct 4-H members in firearms safety and marksmanship.
The shooting discipline in Montgomery County is air rifle and is taught by a National or State
Certified Instructor.

4-H members have opportunities to test their shooting, hunting,
and sportsmanship skills in county, regional, state, and national
competitions. In fact, they could ultimately set Olympic competition as
their goal. There are seventeen Olympic shooting sports events, which
continue to draw the third-greatest number of countries.

In Montgomery County we have one 4-H shooting sports club:The Montgomery Co. Air Rifle Club.

The Air Rifle Club meets short term weekly at our 4-H Center with additional activities and meetings
held at the leaders' discretion. Please contact our office at 610-489-4315
for leader contact information and our office staff will put you in
touch with the shooting sports leader. The club leader will let you know
when the next meeting is being held and give you more detailed
information on club activities and events. When you attend the meeting
and make the decision to join the club, the club leader will have all
the necessary information for you to join 4-H.

Please note: The Montgomery County Archery Club is on hiatus until further notice. If you are interested in becoming certified to resume this club, please contact Amy Shollenberger.
